Snailax Back Massager for Back Pain Deep Tissue, Shiatsu Lower Back Neck Massager with Heat, 3D Kneading Massage Pillow for Neck Shoulder Legs, Gifts for Mom, Dad, Women

So many options and adjustments! Love it!!
This is a terrific massager with so many options. Neck massage can be adjusted up and down as well as rotate in either direction. Back massager has shiatsu or rolling and the rolling width can be adjusted. You can also set it to just focus on lower or upper back. With the weather cooling down the heat option is wonderful! For deeper massage you can remove one layer from neck and/or back or if you want less pressure just wear a thicker top or use a towel or blanket over it. The seat has a vibration option but I don’t usually use that. I had one of these for many years before I finally wore it out (same brand); I used it almost every evening and was very impressed with how long it lasted. I just bought this one a few weeks ago and am looking forward to enjoying it for years to come. I highly recommend!

Surprisingly effective once you get used to it
I’ve been using this massager for about a week and a half, and I’m genuinely impressed. At first, I was worried the pressure would be too strong on my lower back, but after using it consistently for 15 minutes twice a day, the nodes started feeling less sharp and more soothing as my muscles relaxed.The heating feature has become my favorite part because it adds gentle warmth without ever getting uncomfortable. I’m 5’3″ and the placement of the nodes hits my lower back and the area between my shoulder blades perfectly. I can see how someone taller might need to adjust their position a bit to get the same effect.For me, it is a product that delivers real relief once you get used to the pressure. It’s become a relaxing part of my daily routine.

Not going to work for me: thorough review from an average-sized, unincentivized person
I have been using this massage product for about 2 weeks now and purchased it on my own accord and was not incentivized in any way. There are a lot of positives to this product and perhaps it will work for you but I believe I will be returning this product and will replace it with a different model or with a product from a different manufacturer.Pros:• It’s well made• Controls are straightforward and easy to useCons (in my experience using):• The proportions just don’t work for me. I have tried adjusting and repositioning this massage chair device numerous times and have tried attaching it to a number of different chairs and sofas and have also tried just lying on it flat but the proportions just don’t work for me. I am a 5′ ft 11″ male and weigh around 150 lbs. which I would consider to be a fairly standard height / weight (well, perhaps I’m a bit slim/trim for your standard American but that’s a different issue lol). I cannot get the main moving kneading back shiatsu massagers to reach the highest area of my upper back where I most desperately need massage, in between my shoulder blades without the lower back massage range then being too high. It is nice that the neck massage area is vertically adjustable but the range of motion for the main back massage area is not long enough for me and the only way I can get the massager to reach my upper back where I need it to be is by raising the entire unit up but if I raise it up as high as I need it to be then I cannot sit on the cushion as it is no longer lying flat on the top of the chair and is then an angle and I don’t want to sit on it and effectively bend it when it has electronic components inside. And I have issues attaching it to a chair which will be in the next bullet.• The straps to attach it to a chair need to be repositioned or there needs to be an additional third, lower strap. I need to be able to attach the very bottom of the unit to the back of a chair but the lower of the two straps is not low enough and thus no matter what chair I use the bottom of the back panel board keeps sliding forward and it’s just been nearly impossible to use this on any chair or sofa I have tried without there being issues. The only decent experience I get is when I lie it flat on a couch or on the floor and lie myself flat on top of it which is okay but I would really like to be able to use this while sitting upright in a chair.• The lower seat vibration massage area isn’t strong enough. It’s probably a strong as massaging components are capable of being but it just isn’t enough for me. And it would be more noticeable perhaps if they are were pre-programmed massage patterns available and built in (such as pulsating, throbbing, etc.) instead of just solid on or off.My final two cons are for missing features I wish this product had and are not the fault of the manufacturer. It’s likely these features I desire do not exist at all from any manufacturer and/or don’t exist in a product of this price range.• I really wish that there was both kneading shiatsu/rolling massage AND full body vibration massage available in the same unit. Perhaps that’s not possible from a construction standpoint considering the rolling/kneading massage components are constantly moving and having vibration massage units along the same areas as the moving kneading massage parts might not work well together or even feasibly be possible. I don’t see why the kneading massage heads themselves though couldn’t have vibration motors built with inside of them, almost something like the classic Panasonic “Magic Wand” vibrator except the massage head is on a track and is moving/kneading/rolling. Perhaps I will just have to buy a second unit that is massage only and then use one after the other but while the kneading shiatsu massage that this product does provide does feel very nice (despite not quite hitting the right areas of my upper and lower back that I need it to) I still just feel like I didn’t get the whole experience that I really require when I’m done using this product because I really need some sort of pulsating massaging sensation applied in these areas as well.•Lack of “chopping” setting. Again this is not the fault of the manufacturer and this may not exist on any similar product in this price range but my whole basis for comparison in using this machine is from remembering wonderful experiences I have had in full stand-alone massage chairs which I’m sure they purchased for thousands of dollars more but I just think they remember there being a rapid tapping or “chopping” type massage available as well (sorry, I’m not a massage therapist and have no clue what the actual term for this type of massage is lol). The rolling and needing experience is very nice but I need some sort of strong vibration or tapping or chopping feature in the same areas and just do not feel thoroughly refreshed and relax after using this product without experiencing this type of sensation.Overall it’s a nice product and I can understand if it is not possible at all or even just not possible at this price range to have additional vibration and chopping massage style techniques built into this product but even with that aside I wish they would add a third/additional chair attachment strap to this model and I wish the proportions / range of the lower moving back area were slightly adjusted. I believe I am going to purchase a similar product from a different manufacturer to see how well it compares.

Worth the price
Amazing and affordable massager. Very easy to setup and use. I like that its not a separate chair and I can use this on any existing chair.

Siège masseur très efficace. La chaleur est bien positionné, les possibilités d’ajustement du massage sont très bien pensées. J’utilise chaque jour depuis l’achat et je suis très content du résultat donné par le masseur de dos

I actually bought this as a Christmas gift for my Mom originally, but after a long 4wks of battling severe sciatica I decided to try massage. I was considering many different smaller styles and had so many questions, because I’m pretty short. Mom told me “Treat yourself. You won’t regret it!” I was concerned about my height (I’m 5’1”/155cm), but the rave reviews from my Mom convinced me to try it and she’s 5’4”. I’m so grateful I did! I felt relief after the first day. The simple addition of a pillow is perfect for a boost, and it’s so worth it for the incredible shiatsu massage you get. Oh man, it’s SO good! The massager is strong, easy to use, the description is accurate, and it makes me feel so much better that now I use daily. The only question I have now is why didn’t I buy this sooner?!
